Understanding Prompting and Prompt Techniques

This book begins by examining the foundations of large language models (LLMs), including their structure and response generation mechanisms. Then, it will explore various techniques for prompt engineering, such as refining and iterating on initial ideas, to craft effective prompts that elicit the desired output from an LLM. The ethical considerations around using LLMs will be discussed, including ways to mitigate biases and ensure fairness, transparency, and accountability.

This book showcases innovative applications of LLMs across diverse domains to demonstrate their immense potential to enhance lives and reshape industries. We’ll contemplate the future of LLMs by looking at emerging trends, potential ...
